The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 904

After their intimate time together, Candice, overcome with embarrassment, hastily dressed while Elio was bewildered. She practically sprinted away from the room.

"Candice…" Elio called out. He couldn't go after her as he wasn't fully dressed yet.

She dashed out of the office and into the elevator, gasping for breath. Upon returning to the design department, Vanessa hurried over and leaned forward with her hands on Candice's table.

Vanessa's gaze fell upon Candice's flushed face and slightly swollen lips. "Candice, what happened? Why are you so red? Did you have lunch?"

Candice avoided Vanessa's gaze, looking down sheepishly. "Yes, I did. Just by myself."

"I didn't see you in the cafeteria! And you usually take only half an hour for lunch. Why did it take you over an hour today?"

"I-I didn't eat at the company cafeteria. I went somewhere… far."

Vanessa lightly smacked Candice's hand with a hint of displeasure. "Candice, why didn't you bring me along if you found a great spot?"

Candice forced a smile and tucked a stray wisp of hair behind her ear. "Next time. I'll definitely take you there next time."

Suddenly, Vanessa exclaimed, "Don't move."

Candice looked at her in surprise.

Vanessa lifted Candice's long hair to inspect the area behind her ear close to her neck. Then, she questioned, "Why's there a red mark on your neck? It looks like a hickey."

Candice panicked. "A hickey?"

"A love bite!" Vanessa said, looking astonished.

Flustered, Candice quickly let her hair fall to cover her neck. Then, she feigned annoyance. "Don't talk nonsense. I-I scratched myself. It was just a mosquito bite."
